The human view that the age of dinosaurs was remote in time is an illusion that results from our short life span. A galactic year, the time it takes our solar system to orbit the center of the galaxy, is 200 million years. Only one galactic year ago the dinosaurs had just appeared on planet Earth. When dinosaurs first appeared, our solar system was already well over 4 billion years old, and 95 percent of the history of our planet had already passed.

The company usually sees very high cash flows but keeps profits close to zero. FROM: Worldmark Global Business and Economy Issues (2015) Gale Virtual Reference Library database
